Now ... now we're afraid. EA
announced today that its sci-fi survival-horror game
Dead Space is hitting retail a week before its
originally scheduled Halloween release in Europe. Doesn't EA understand what it's doing?! The natural order of this industry is being torn apart by such
shifts in the timeline. Games are meant to be delayed, not ... um, what's the word for "undelayed"? See, we don't even know because we never use it!
The game will release in Europe on Oct. 24 for PS3 and Xbox 360, while the PC will still receive it on Halloween (Oct. 31).
We're still waiting on an official release from EA in North America The game will release in North America on Oct. 21.
Update: Looks like the NA date change was
announced during a trailer last month.

SO what does this mean about the Blu-Ray movie? It was supposed to come out before the game so we can be all set with the backstory.
Did the movie get pushed up as well?

Despite the glowing E3 previews, I really didn't care about this game until I marathoned the 'comics' yesterday.

No, that just describes the last couple months of my life :(

That's how I felt but when the 4th episode came out I decided to watch them all because I was bored at work. Then it jumped up to the top of my list of games to play this year
